REPORT OF COMMISSIONERS OF CEMETERIES, ROBBINS FUND, SOLDIERS' MONUMENT FUND AND SAMUEL C. BUCKNAM FUND


ARLINGTON, Mass., January 1, 1920


The Commissioners of Cemeteries, Robbins Fund, Soldiers' Monument Fund and Samuel C. Bucknam Fund herewith present a report of the work done under the supervision of the Commissioners during the year ending December 31, 1919.


On account of the conditions existing in surrounding cities and the filling up of cemeteries in or controlled by these cities, the Commissioners have found it necessary to adopt stringent regulations which will prevent residents of the Town buying lots in the Cemetery for the accommodation of non-residents. This practice, while in itself apparently harmless, in many cases works a hardship not only on the innocent purchaser, but also to the person in whose interest the lot was purchased. No citizen should allow the use of his name in the purchase of a lot unless that lot is to be used for his own immediate family. The consent of the Commissioners will be required in cases where interments are to be made for persons outside certain defined degrees of relationship. The Commissioners deem it only proper that this action on their part should be known by all citizens who may have occasion to purchase lots in the Cemetery, or who may be asked to purchase lots in their name for the benefit and use of non-residents.


During the year 34 lots and 51 single graves have been sold, and the gross receipts from the sale of these lots has been $2,710.00 which is available for reappropriation for any purposes voted by the Town.


No work out of the ordinary has been done during the year owing to prevailing conditions. There are numerous things, however, that should be done and which the Commissioners hope to do the coming year. The labor question has very

REPORT OF COMMISSIONERS OF CEMETERIES


materially affected this department as all other departments and in order to keep the Cemetery in its usual good condition, the Commissioners feel that a decided increase must be made in the appropriation allowed by the Town. This appropriation does not in any year equal the amount paid into the Treasury for the sale of lots, so that as a matter of fact the Cemetery Department is not only self supporting but a contributor to the finances of the Town for use for other departments.


The Commissioners have continued to care for the Old Cemetery on Pleasant Street and the Soldiers' Monument Grounds at no additional expense to the Town.
